Supply Chain Analytics

As of 2026-05-29

Supply chain serves the Auto/Industrial demand block (18%, §17.11) and moves working capital directly — frame everything in its KPIs (OTIF, forecast accuracy/MAPE, inventory turns, cash-to-cash). SAP IBP owns operational planning; Datasphere builds the cross-functional data products blending IBP plans + S/4HANA execution (MM/SD/PP) + external signals; SAC shows plan-vs-actual. Counter the bullwhip effect with demand sensing and one shared forecast; model at the planning granularity the business executes at, not the finest available. Control-tower analytics is the maturity destination (BDC's unified-foundation pattern). The premium pairs SAP fluency with genuine supply-chain literacy.
